    I did use to have the premium one (so called) and it was hopeless as many found out. So I got the older one and been fine until the last couple of rides. Now I am getting HR of over 200 often and it seems it is because the sweat is causing it to slip down my chest.

    anyone else had the same problem and I presume not resolvable, if not will problem need to look at the Mio Fuse which from reports not he web seems to have no problems like this.

    This is important as my training is now moving to HR training.

    been wearing it under generally 2/3 layers and maybe it is do with the sweat on these layers, after a bit of readjusting it is OK. However that is no good if trying to keep to a HR on a 5 mile stretch !!

    Other than this had no issue with it whatsoever !

    Not that it helps much, but I have the premium one that came with my Edge 1000 and it’s been fine. I read about people having issues with connectivity and the like – but it’s not something I’ve experienced. Is your firmware up-to-date?

    Are you wearing lots of clothes that may interfere with it? I’ve had it under 2 base layers and a Gabba and it’s been fine. I do find it a little restrictive to wear though, I tightened it up a bit when it slipped a bit when I first got it – no slipping but it is noticeable that you have it on under high levels of exertion.
